Henry Zebrowski
That's when the cannibalism started. Side stories. Yes. It's crazy, Eddie. I didn't actually didn't even know that they made this car anymore. I did not know. I thought that they had discontinued this.
Ed Larson
The Yugo.
Henry Zebrowski
No, no. Have you seen the Kia abortion? Oh, yeah. It is crazy. The Kia abortion was. It's. It's brave, obviously. Brave. They have. It has a. It's actually what's great is that it's amazing, especially now that the. These gasoline prices are going to shoot through the roof because tariffs is it actually works on fetus meat. And you put it through the top of like a blender type thing at.
Ed Larson
The very back, sit on it like. Like in Back to the Future they had the thing with Doc Brown put in all the trash except for you put your hoo. Ha. Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
If you. If you've got a boardy that's ready to slide out, that's been unmoored and unanchored. Yeah. And it's just crazy because even just like first of all, I did not know that Casey Anthony was Such a gearhead. Oh, she loves it because she had it. I like the fact that she's even driving around with one. I didn't even know that that was street legal anymore. Yeah, she must have. She must know Jay Leno.
Ed Larson
Well, she works with Kia. She's a big. She's their new spokesperson.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, that's. That actually makes so much sense because on the roads.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Because she Kia her child.
Henry Zebrowski
She Kia'd. Yes. And got away with keying, which is one of the worst things you can do.
Ed Larson
Was it a Kia that she had?
Henry Zebrowski
No, no, it was some other car. I'm making a joke. I actually can't even really tell right now. I just know that on the road. And you can come at me on this side stories. Lpotl gmail.com. there's only one driver worse than a Tesla driver and that is a Kia driver.
Ed Larson
Whoa. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to come at you because I used to have a Kia Sophia.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. That's different. You or wanted to be Italian. Yeah, they. Oh, yeah. She drove a Pontiac Sunfire. Thanks for the remember. Thanks for the memories.
Ed Larson
I got you.
Henry Zebrowski
Eddie.
Ed Larson
They're Korean.
Henry Zebrowski
Welcome to side Stories.
Ed Larson
We flipped the car, by the way. So it was. I'm. That's not the best example.
Henry Zebrowski
No, I wasn't driving.
Ed Larson
Someone else was driving.
Henry Zebrowski
Thank you.
Ed Larson
And then they flipped the car and we were stuck on our side. And I remember they were like, they just flipped my car because they wanted to look at the CDs as I was changing the CDs. And I remember they flipped the car and then we're sitting on our side and they're like hanging because they had their seat belt on and they were hanging. And then they're like, I got to take my belt off. I'm like, if you take that belt off, you're going to crush me. They're like, I got to take my belt off. Like, if you take your belt off, I'm going to kill you. I'm already very mad at you. And then I talk some people into pushing our car back right side up.
Henry Zebrowski
My name's Henry Spi. I'm sitting here with the awful storyteller Ed Larson.
Ed Larson
I feel like you only that would be a better story if you didn't make me rush through it.
Henry Zebrowski
It's just cuz I was in the middle of the most practiced, hardest part of my job.
Ed Larson
Which is what?
Henry Zebrowski
Saying the name of this show.
Ed Larson
Side Stories.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. Oh, it's the hardest part of the. Of hosting.
Ed Larson
I mean, it's easy for you to remember because you're so involved with the ss.
Henry Zebrowski
Not anymore. Not according to your fantasies. Eddie, I. We've got a lot of stuff. So much messaging in on these. These. These wench. These beer wench dresses that you're obsessed with.
Ed Larson
Dindle Tron house and then some nice options. Thank you so much for people who sent in the. The German beer hall dresses for my wife.
Henry Zebrowski
For his wife. Been sexualizing in a. In a. In a. A kind of antique.
Ed Larson
Here's the thing. I mean, these, like. I don't want Julie to look like a Hummel.
Henry Zebrowski
No, no, no. You want to look like a Hummel, you can.
Ed Larson
These. I would say these. How do I say? The breasts don't heave as much as I'd like them to. I will specting.
Henry Zebrowski
I want more.
Ed Larson
Just like I want. I want like her breasts to heave so much. They're like at her ears.
Henry Zebrowski
Well, I think the way you do that is, you know, like truly is. You can handle that yourself, buddy. You just cut a hole in that. Well, you just cut the window into the top of that thing that you want. Right. And that's when you present the dress. But you don't give her the option necessarily to choose what neckline she wants.
Ed Larson
I want to push up bra. So well. That works so well. Her tits are like a hat.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, great. Oh, that's easy. Honestly, that's just ribbons. Yeah, that's just ribbons. You just. You just tie it behind her head.
Ed Larson
So I think I was at. What I was actually looking for is ribbon.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, yes, I think so.
Ed Larson
You could send in some breasts. He's looking for breast ropes for my wife. So if you could find anything that really would help with that, I would appreciate that. The dwindle dresses are very nice. I might actually just buy her one. I just couldn't see a world where I could. I give her this and she doesn't like, look at me and possibly hit me.
Henry Zebrowski
No. She'll be upset with you. Especially when you tell her your brutalist fantasies where you want to be a dying Jewish man. And she's a friendly Bavarian woman that has either found you after you've escaped from the concentration camps for you boy. But I just feel like you're just so, like. And I'm. And I mean, this is taken to the woods. I. I mean this in the nicest way, Eddie, but I live in the woods.
Ed Larson
I need a new forest wife.
Henry Zebrowski
When you look in the mirror and you see yourself, it's gonna be hard. Especially like, are you Gonna draw little numbers on your arm?
Ed Larson
No, I never got caught. That's the thing. I'm living in the woods.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, you're saying die before you take me, baby. That's what he needs. Also, I've got a lot of people sending in stuff about stuff. Stalag Finish. Fiction. The Stalag Finish. I don't know how you quite pronounce it.
Ed Larson
Yeah, no, that's.
Henry Zebrowski
But this is exactly what you're looking for.
Ed Larson
This isn't what I'm looking for.
Henry Zebrowski
It's pornographic Nazi exploitation.
Ed Larson
But these women are Nazis. Exactly like a German woman.
Henry Zebrowski
What do you think the Bavarians were.
Ed Larson
To live in Nazi Germany?
Henry Zebrowski
Guess what happens? Doesn't believe if you're not in their views and if you're actively fighting it, you're one of them.
Ed Larson
What do you mean?
Henry Zebrowski
That's what the Dirndl women are. Even though, yeah. They might be apolitical because they have their ghost nipples.
Ed Larson
They hate it.
Henry Zebrowski
No, they don't.
Ed Larson
There's no way another guy.
Henry Zebrowski
There's no way they'd be allowed into the Dirndls if they hated it.
Ed Larson
Oh, come on. Everyone gets a dwindle if you're blonde or redheaded enough.
Henry Zebrowski
No, the Bavarians were even more hateful than the city based bar wenches. Look at this. I could just see Eddie putting his face on this little Jewish within the. On the prisoner of this Stalag magazine. Like Nazi this year. They have their tits out, they look great and they actually are dressed like Nazis. They're dressed like something else.
Ed Larson
She has a Nazi AR band.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, I thought that was just a fun X. Maybe that's my problem politically recently.
Ed Larson
Understand the side of a swastika.
Henry Zebrowski
No, honestly, I do understand it. I know it's supposed to be a target for bullets.
Ed Larson
Yes. You know how it's amazing, you know, the swastika and the Germans. They never turned the swastika into a pretzel.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, Again, missed opportunities.
Ed Larson
Totally missed opportunity. There was only a couple years where that would have really popped.
Henry Zebrowski
That's why they really needed capitalism. Oh, I remember Ilsa. She would she Wolf of the ss. We almost saw this film.
Ed Larson
What is this?
Henry Zebrowski
It's. It's one of your favorite movies, Eddie. I think. Yeah. You would. You would love it. Wow. You just never stop jerking off to it. Whoa.
Ed Larson
It's got dogs and Nazi women.
Henry Zebrowski
You'd be surprised. I got some old documentaries I could show you as well. Some of them are pretty rough. Well, I'm glad we got that out of the way now. Let's talk about how many.
Ed Larson
Do we just lose a bunch of subscribers? Yeah, of course.
Henry Zebrowski
Every time. Every time we speak. And if you want to see Eddie in a dirndle dress, he's gonna be in one at the. When we do our live show.
Ed Larson
Well, I won't. But you gotta dress like a little German boy.
Henry Zebrowski
I will.
Ed Larson
You see all these outfits they got? I saw what this on the dwindle site. They're actually selling leather boy swim trunks.
Henry Zebrowski
I know.
Ed Larson
It's leather swim trucks.
Henry Zebrowski
It's so a boy drowns on vacation. That's the idea. They're all very thick. All of these are very th. But that's that for our show.
Ed Larson
Oh, man. Well, we gotta hurry up and buy this because we're gonna be in Huntsville.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah.
Ed Larson
On March 16th at the LBC center or the VBC Center. The Von Braun center.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. You're gonna love it. And we all love Werner von Braun, our favorite American.
Ed Larson
Oh, my God. Is it named after him?
Henry Zebrowski
Yes.
Ed Larson
Oh, I never put it together until this moment.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes, it is named after.
Ed Larson
We're playing it at a place named after a Nazi.
Henry Zebrowski
We made him American. All right? So we have to all know. That's the effect.
Ed Larson
We're all sitting there.
Henry Zebrowski
We've made him American.
Ed Larson
This whole stuff with Julie is a joke. This is serious.
Henry Zebrowski
I actually think that you'd be surprised. Natalie says this to me all the time. She tells me all this time about joke. She's like, oh, you joke. You say it's just a joke. But I also heard you at one point say, henry, all jokes are true. And I said, parts of jokes are true. And. And thoughts behind jokes can be true. But this is. This is just history, Eddie. Werner von Brau started this theater so that he could do his favorite play. I want to say he did the wizard of Oz several times because it reminded him of his old boss.
Ed Larson
Yes. Because that was Hogan's Heroes.
Henry Zebrowski
Adolf Hitler's. One of his favorite movies was Wizard. The Wizard.
Ed Larson
There better be a sandwich shop. And they're called Hogan's heroes.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, my God. Please. That would be amazing. Oh, God. Satan. Yeah. That's a great hat. It's a great tag. All right, so we did our plug. We did. We discussed Eddie's lingering fascination sexually with Nazis. But now, believe we're.
Ed Larson
I. I know. We were going. This is blowing my mind. It's his theater.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, Buddy. Where do you think he got. Annie got your gun?
Ed Larson
Annie. Annie got your gun.
Henry Zebrowski
You know what I mean? Where do you think he got. Yeah, yeah. Where do you think he got these? He's like, he's a showman. He always was. But we have to talk about another one of our favorite villains. She's back.
Ed Larson
Oh, God.
Henry Zebrowski
My texts have not stopped ringing. I mean it, the messaging. I'm getting all day long emails. Dms. My mom reached out.
Ed Larson
Really?
Henry Zebrowski
Did you see Casey Anthony's on Tick Tock, everyone?
Ed Larson
Why?
Henry Zebrowski
My mom, My mom even, she was just like that horrible woman, but her skin looks so nice. And I was just like, no, I know, mom. Great. Also, how. Why are you on the computer? I don't want her on the computer. But Casey Anthony, in case you live under a true crime rock, you now know that Casey Anthony has started a TikTok. And even worse than a Tick Tock, she has started a sub stack. Now Casey Anthony has decided to come out swinging at the top of this. I can't believe this. The Casey Anthony. Let's, let's just start. Just you can hear. Let's go. Let's scrub through some of the video. You see her, she's very nervous up top. Because obviously she's so not used to public speaking.
Ed Larson
Yeah. With a giant.
Casey Anthony
Today is Saturday, March 1, 2025. This is my first of probably many recordings on a series that I'm starting. I am a legal advocate. I am a researcher. I've been in the legal field since 2011. And in this capacity, that's 2008, feel that it's necessary if I'm going to continue to operate appropriately as a legal advocate that I start to advocate for myself.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes, definitely.
Casey Anthony
And also advocate for my daughter. For those of you who don't know, my name is Casey Anthony. My daughter is Kaylee Anthony. My parents are George and Cindy Anthony. This is not about them. This is not in response to anything that they have said or done. That's not to say that I'm not going to respond at some point to some of the things that they have said and done. The whole point of this is for me to begin to reintroduce myself. I'm doing this both personally for me, but in a professional capacity. Moving forward, the majority of what you will see will be me speaking in a professional capacity. My goal is to continue to help give a voice to people, to give people tools and resources that they can utilize so they actually know where they can turn to.
Henry Zebrowski
Now, Casey Anthony is. She's putting herself forward as this thing, what they call a legal advocate or victims advocate. This is a term hear a lot and it is a. It's a fraught Term. It's also. It's hard. Right. Because it's for people that largely don't have the resources to hire a lawyer or have been fucked up by the system for various reasons. Either they, you know, they've been rolled through the CPS system, they've been rolled through various things and they need help. So these, these legal advocates are people that sort of come out and some of them are on one side of the spectrum where they have a lot of experience in training, education. A lot of them used to be lawyers or people that want to be in law enforcement. And they are looking to do pro bono work to help people. And I'm going to say that's one side of the spectrum.
Ed Larson
Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
And on the other side of this. Good. Yes, it's fine. It's utterly fine.
Ed Larson
Some. Some people need help.
Henry Zebrowski
You do need help. It is hard when you don't have. It's definitely difficult. If you don't have the money, you.
Ed Larson
Can'T hire a lawyer. You have a public defender, if you're lucky or you're getting sued and you don't have money, hire a lawyer.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. But then on the other side of all of this, you have Casey Anthony. So now Casey Anthony is the exact worst problem that something like legal advocacy has. Because it's Casey Anthony.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And the second you're standing next to Casey Anthony, you are involved in Casey Anthony's life, her baggage, every single thing attached to her. She is a human anchorage and a child murderer now.
Ed Larson
Devil's advocate.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, so you're gonna. So this is you. You're fighting for cases.
Ed Larson
Not fighting for. I'm asking questions. If someone was accused of murdering their child, would Casey Anthony not be a really good legal advocate for them?
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, sure. Yeah, yeah, yes, absolutely. If you want that involvement. You know what I mean? If you want that involvement. Sure. It could be. If you're also what seems to be accused of mur. Child. And there seems to be heaps and heaps of evidence against you, but then you happen to also like sucking your lawyer's penis. I think that Casey would do a really. That she'd be perfect for you because I do think that the most of Casey Anthony's legal information does come from her former lawyer's balls. And they seems to. She believes that it has kind of spread through her brain. Now, I just important to know that the worst part about something like this is because of the words victim advocacy. Yes. People need help right now more than ever. We got. You know, this divide's coming harder than you could possibly imagine we are going to have more people having less and more people having more than ever before.
Ed Larson
Yes. And when desperation hits, that's when crime goes up.
Henry Zebrowski
Of course. Yeah, it's very natural and it's also very difficult. But another thing that then gets pushed onto those that don't have that much money is that when you are looking for somebody to help you, you feel, I think, a lot, you look at the term victim advocate and you're like, this is somebody who cares. This is somebody that wants to help no matter what it is that they think, whatever they, they want to put aside their own lives and they want to altruistically help me. But I have to stress, I just gotta let you get through your heads just a little bit. Is that those people, it's why the grift is so hard in that world.
Ed Larson
It is and it does it a lot. And you see it in this world and then you also see basically people in legal trouble that don't deserve it. That or our victims are very easily.
Henry Zebrowski
Taken advantage of, easily manipulated. If you're in a desperate set of circumstances, you're looking for any help that you can get. So sometimes you're going to take whoever shows up. But the thing is, is that again, why it's. All this gets kicked to us is that you have to vet these motherfuckers so thickly. You need to, you need to, when you're getting something, just remember the statement, there's no such thing as a free lunch. You're going to have to pay for it in one way or another. So you just have to figure out what it is you're willing to pay. You look into these people you read about, you call people that they've worked with. You need to dig into the lives of the advocates that are working for you because if you don't, you don't. You got it. You just have to know who these people are.
Ed Larson
Yeah, A good way to do that I always, always find is like literally Google their name, word scandal next to.
Henry Zebrowski
It or just like that. Or I mean, do the legwork. Call a guy's former boss. Yeah, do it be like, what, who's this person? Send an email. Because especially if you need help, that help also has to be good. Because the worst, also the worst part is that when you desperately need help, you need big money help. You don't need the shitty guy who, the person who just rolls up from the, the Petco that you met while you were getting your cat groom said that she's got a lot of ideas about to help you with your tenant advocacy. Because they don't know. Go to a real place. And especially don't go to Casey Anthony.
Ed Larson
No, certainly don't go to Casey Anthony. And by the way, I. While. While you've been talking. It's beautifully said, by the way, I will say I've been trying to find out how to hire Casey Anthony. Just out of curiosity, how do we get her? How do we get her?
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, because my back hurts.
Ed Larson
There is no way can we get her because I want to. I've been searching. I'm on like page five of Google. I don't know how to h. Hire her.
Henry Zebrowski
I do believe that if you're in the Fort Lauderdale area and you. And you have a cyber truck, if you're. I think that if you waive a hundred dollar bill while driving a cyber truck around Fort Lauderdale, she will just show up.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And so, like, you'd actually be surprised. I feel like she'll just, like, she'll just materialize being like, ah, there's money and attention here.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shots on us. If you say that she'll eventually show up like a genie.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, yeah. Especially Zanny bars. She's got Danny bars. She's gonna love that. Just remember that. Casey Anthony. If she actually g. Shit, we wouldn't know she was doing this until it was. She was doing it already. Just know that her sticking her dumb ass face into social media to get herself back into the fucking news cycle. This is all this is doing. And yeah, we're. We're doing it exactly what she wants, which is.
Ed Larson
We are talking about exactly what she wants. We're telling her to go fuck herself. But people are definitely going to like this.
Henry Zebrowski
Well, because the problem is that there are. There are unfortunately very dumb and innocent people that don't understand that this is a very bad person and that what this person is going to do is hollow you out and leave you empty.
Ed Larson
It's hard to remember that this, like, you know, 2008 is almost 20 years ago.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, I know again, I was just a lot of.
Ed Larson
There's a lot of people who are younger that just look like someone. This is someone who triumphed over a bad thing and don't really realize how evil she actually is.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, dude. And I know we're supposed to be. Keep. Keep saying allegedly and then all this kind of. But that I'm sick of this garbage, especially with Casey Anthony, because I don't care. Because you know what? Even if. Even if. Yeah, all right, you go through all of this, let's just say in some kind of snowballs, hell and chance that she is innocent. You mean to tell me she wants more of this?
Ed Larson
Yeah, she wants more.
Henry Zebrowski
She wants more scandal, she wants more attention. She wants to drag this up more. She wants to name her dead daughter again on a fucking social media for.
Ed Larson
Her like she's still alive.
Henry Zebrowski
Like, yeah, fuck that bitch. Also like look her sub stack. Oh good, you can go give her a hundred hundred dollars a year for her substance. It's always about money.
Ed Larson
10 bucks a month for her horrible opinion.
Henry Zebrowski
Everything's a money grab then this is the worst thing right now is that we're seeing every. Everybody's doing everything for the sake of a money grab, which I do understand. There's no help coming and it feels very, very scary. So everybody feels like they got to get in on the grift, but you got to understand the grift universe will eventually end.
Ed Larson
I don't know, man.
Henry Zebrowski
I mean, it's one way or another, buddy.
Ed Larson
You know, if you are a victim. Victim. I think it's very important. We've already said it. Know that people are coming for you because you're you making. The fact that you're already a victim makes you an easy target. And you know, I. When both of my parents died, I had people calling me non stop trying to get money out of me, telling me my parents owed them money and people from Egypt telling me that my mom was a. You know, like it was crazy.
Henry Zebrowski
You know how many happens?
Ed Larson
And now the. The grift I see all the time is because. Because we're lonelier than ever.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah.
Ed Larson
A lot of people don't go out, they don't have, they don't associate. Social media, it keeps us connected, but we don't go to each other's houses, we don't see each other anymore. So people are actually very lonely. And so the grift I keep getting on my phone and I'm. Luckily I'm smart enough to realize it's a grift, but people just start. Hey, how you doing?
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah, you want to get sushi.
Ed Larson
Tomorrow from a number you don't know?
Henry Zebrowski
Yes.
Ed Larson
And every time it's someone preying on other people's loneliness just to get you to respond. And then like it starts off all easy. Cuz I've practiced responding because I'm curious, you know, I'm like, oh no, I'm fine. You know, is we, you know, who is this? Oh, you don't remember me? How did you not save my number and stuff like that. And they start blaming you for. For doing something wrong. And then the next thing you know, you're sending them money.
Henry Zebrowski
Yep. And it's the same thing with. They do it to old people by sending them the weird phishing emails, and they're doing it to us now. You think you're past it. We all do. We all think we're smart enough, we all think that we're savvy enough, that we know enough about how business sausage gets made and how the media goes. But you would be surprised. I watch. So, you know, I watch my, my, obviously my reams and reams of body cam footage. One thing that also shows up all the time is at a foreclosure, there's always somebody that's there that's getting foreclosed. And it's sad, right? I don't like watching those necessarily, but I watch it for the quote, unquote, quote tenant advocates that just kind of show up all of a sudden. It's just some person that is trying to jam their way in between all of these various things, thinking. And then you start to, like, the more and more you listen to them talk, you realize like, oh, the woman that was the former tenant promised this person money. Like, this woman's fighting. And then you realize, like, oh, no, no, no, she's doing this as some other long con into this person's life. And again, I'm not saying that they're all illegitimate.
Ed Larson
No, there's. They're probably mostly legitimate.
Henry Zebrowski
Mostly. But. But the thing is, is that. That being said, you have to fight for yourself.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
You have to fight for yourself. You have to know who the hell it is you're talking to when you decide to put your name next to somebody else. Especially in. In any of these matters. When it comes to, you know, child custody or like, all immigration. Immigration, you need to fucking very much so trust who these people are.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
So just. You got to do your homework.
Ed Larson
I remember when speaking of this, to get last, you know, not to get too crazy on it, but speaking of immigration and people taking advantage of disparate people, when I was working down at the border, we wanted to interview a coyote, you know, and like, just be like, well, let's talk to these people.
Henry Zebrowski
Now. These are. If you're talking about the. The people that bring people across the border. Not the dogs.
Ed Larson
Not the dogs. I was. Look, I mean, I just want to hang. I don't want to interview coyotes is a hang. And then we're going to kill some Roadrunners.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, dude, I want to do shots with the coyote.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the coyote who brings people across the border illegally, we wanted to find one. And the way we actually found one to interview was a immigration lawyer in Brownsville, Texas, knew the coyote. The coyote was his brother. Y and so he would sit there and he'd get people who get get caught coming over the border and then he would. And they would get sent back and then he would give them right back to his brother, the coyote. It was a horrible little circle that they had going and they were evil as hell and they were paying straight gangsters.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah. And everybody's making money off of making money. And it's very difficult. Cuz again, who are we aiming towards? Extremely vulnerable people.
Ed Larson
Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
People that are easy to roll.
Ed Larson

Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And that brings us to our next bit of news. Papu is indeed the il Papu.
Ed Larson
Yes. Pope Francis still almost dead as of this recording. We don't know what's happening tomorrow. I'm say, curse aside, stories probably going to be dead by the time you hear this.
Henry Zebrowski
Fingers crossed.
Ed Larson
Yes, but he's still alive. He suffered two new acute respiratory crisises yesterday.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm so cute about him. Do they have little mice in there? They're all hanging out.
Ed Larson
Yes. Copious amounts of mucus were pulled out of his lungs during two bronchoscopies. Wow. I don't know how to say that. Bronchoscopies. Bronchoscopies.
Henry Zebrowski
This is my question. Yeah, all right. You're with the Pope. He's going, bring me a boy. Bring me a boy. And they're like, you're in the hospital. We can't. We can't heal Papua. And they pull the mucus out of the Pope. Now every other fluid out of the Pope is magical.
Ed Larson
Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, like, you want to get kissed by the Pope, you want to get licked by the Pope, you want to be washed by the Pope, you want to get tongued by the Pope. Would not his mucus be holy.
Ed Larson
Are we. Of course it is. First of all. But are we sure it's mucus could become. He could have swallowed come, and it could have went into his lungs. He could have sucked so much dick.
Henry Zebrowski
Yep.
Ed Larson
That there's come in his lungs.
Henry Zebrowski
You're right.
Ed Larson
And they're in this.
Henry Zebrowski
You're right. And I actually didn't even answer this question myself. I should have.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Sometimes when you suck a lot of dick, you could drown and come. And that might be what's happening to Pope Francis right now.
Henry Zebrowski
Wow. I. I hope for his sake, because, you know, in the end, he died doing what he loved.
Ed Larson
Yeah. And you know what? And if the come is holy, then he should be able to breathe through it because it's holy.
Henry Zebrowski
That's. That's funny. Yes. I knew what you're saying. But. But again, if the come is holy.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
I feel like he should have been healed. He should have been younger. I thought that the more dick he sucked, the younger he'd get.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Because right now he is looking, sadly, a bit like Colin Farrell from the Penguin, and he's got some.
Ed Larson
Much worse.
Henry Zebrowski
He's got some penguin vibes.
Ed Larson
Marshmallo yellow head.
Henry Zebrowski
Right now. He is not looking good. And if anybody. I'm not going to spoil the ending of conflict, Tootsie. You know he does. He is the tootsie of popes. He is Pope Tootsie. If. If anybody's seen Enclave, I'm not going to conclave.
Ed Larson
What I say, spoiler alert. You said Enclave. You forgot to see before the.
Henry Zebrowski
What's an enclave? I think this is a place people hang out.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Or like when rocks fall on a car.
Henry Zebrowski
Cool. Yeah, I like that better. Conclave. If you haven't seen it. I. I won't spoil the ending for you, but these bishops have the very. They have the funniest thing they could do possibly in their hands.
Ed Larson
Oh, my God.
Henry Zebrowski
It is. We have a shot here to really shake things up. And that's why I'm putting forward my bid for new Pope Pope Shakira.
Ed Larson
Pope Shakira.
Henry Zebrowski
Would be together at you, my dear.
Ed Larson
She's in trouble, right?
Henry Zebrowski
She needs the money. Well, I'll bail her out. What does she need?
Ed Larson
She. She got in trouble with money, so.
Henry Zebrowski
Why. What does she need? What does she need help with? I think we need to help Shakira.
Ed Larson
I think. Yeah. She's not bankrupt like tax.
Henry Zebrowski
I like that giraffe wrote in Shakira bankrupt into Google. First thing it says, no, Shakira's a.
Ed Larson
Not bankrupt in Spain. That's her problem.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, I can help you, Shakira.
Ed Larson
Yeah, we can do whatever you need here. On side story.
Henry Zebrowski
Shakira, Tax fraud in Spain. I thought that they all just. How can you even do that in Spain?
Ed Larson
How much shellfish do you need?
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, I mean, exactly how much Pulpo are you supposed to give back a year?
Ed Larson
I can't believe they actually catch people doing crimes with all the naps they.
Henry Zebrowski
Take seriously and all the tiny plates. Like, I feel like there's like, who's got in this economy they're not having Serving full dishes of food.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Shakira was indicted for tax fraud. She shouldn't be going to jail. Shakira can't go to jail.
Ed Larson
She's gonna be totally fine. She. Shakira.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, she said that she was a The Bahamas, of course. Her and Jeffrey Epstein in 2023. Oh, that's. Wow. She did. She got a deal. She's fine.
Ed Larson
Yeah, she's fine.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, then she's fine.
Ed Larson
No, Shakira's gonna be fine. She's too. I mean, she's too. Shakira.
Henry Zebrowski
Pope Shakira. Think about it. She's having a hard time selling tickets. And if she goes out there, man, that first man. The first Pope with a GD Badonka Dungeon punk. Because I was saying this about. I was thinking about this.
Ed Larson
The outfits aren't great for that.
Henry Zebrowski
Well, what do you mean?
Ed Larson
The Pope outfits. You can't see ass through that.
Henry Zebrowski
No. Well, Pope Franchusco. Whatever his name is.
Ed Larson
Good.
Henry Zebrowski
Squeaky clean.
Ed Larson
Imagine a short skirt pope.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, God, that makes me hard. Like, just thinking about it would be so much fun because, you know, the Pope nice Pope had. Hypocrite Pope nice Francis is the only nice Pope. That's what I mean. Hypocrite Pope hypocrite. Would he. He did was. He technically revolutionized the papal outfit because he technically toned it down. He famously made it less opulent after Pope Benedict, the former openly Nazi Pope, who I actually even like even more because of the refreshing honesty. Because he at least was just openly evil. Like the Pope Benedict. He was on all doing all the pomp and circumstance. He did all the big hats. He did all the ornate clothing. The Pope hypocrite. He kind of pulled it back a little bit.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
But now I think if Pope Shakira gets in there. Nothing I'd like better think about that.
Ed Larson
I would love it if the next pope wasn't pure evil.
Henry Zebrowski
If one that. No only pure evil. More evil.
Ed Larson
You Think so?
Henry Zebrowski
Yes.
Ed Larson
Makes it easier to hate the Catholic Church. Dude, we don't need them winning anything.
Henry Zebrowski
No, dude, I want them to step on immediately.
Ed Larson
Talk me into it.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. I want them to step on the gas pump toward their own destruction. And the more chaos from the top, the more likely it's to shake apart.
Ed Larson
So Steve Bannon.
Henry Zebrowski
Be a great pope.
Ed Larson
Pope Bannon.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. Pope flooding his own. Yeah.
Ed Larson
Biden. He's a Catholic.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't know.
Ed Larson
He's available. Biden, he's old as hell.
Henry Zebrowski
I can't have having him kneel all the time.
Ed Larson
Oh, he's. He's the one person that doesn't have to kneel.
Henry Zebrowski
Think about how long that fucking mass is going to be with him. Shuffling. Hey, hey, hey. Let me be clear. Hey, listen here, Jack. I know my buddy. I have a friend named Jesus Christ. He used to be working at a Mexican restaurant. Hey, come here, Jack. Here. Listen here, friend. Listen here, Papa poo. I'm gonna tell you something I know. All right? I do. 1, 2, 3, 4. Angela Merkel said the big set, the biggest set of Ding Dongs I've seen outside of my. Oh, sweet, sweet wife.
Ed Larson
Set of Ding Dongs. Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't know. I don't know. He's not. He. Biden.
Ed Larson
You know. No, seriously, all of them. Yes. I just.
Henry Zebrowski
Every single one of them.
Ed Larson
Even the ones I like. I hate.
Henry Zebrowski
I hate everyone.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm trying to think if there's a single leader I could remotely stand.
Ed Larson
I like Bernie.
Henry Zebrowski
Him, too.
Ed Larson
I mean. Yes. And he would second that.
Henry Zebrowski
I know he would tell you.
Ed Larson
That makes him. Good. Good.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, he's gonna go meet. Oh, yeah. Biden met with the Pope. Maybe that's what happened. Oh, he's so close.
Ed Larson
Yeah. He's touching him.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, he sucked the last life out of him.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what Biden thought.
Ed Larson
Made it through.
Henry Zebrowski
Whoa.
Ed Larson
The Pope's energy.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, yeah. Let me be clear. Let me be care. Pope Hypocrite. A thinner. I'm gonna give you the thinner deserts.
Ed Larson
Whoa.
Henry Zebrowski
He's sucking on his little baby hairs. Yeah.
Ed Larson
The Pope's looking into his eye. They're touching foreheads in this picture. This is literally looking into his eyes, like, please don't kill me.
Henry Zebrowski
This is how I hang out with me. Well, hopefully the Pope will die soon, because then we can all go. Oh, man, I. I just wish that we could vote from home.
Ed Larson
Yeah, well, we don't get a vote.
Henry Zebrowski
No, we don't. Watch Conclave. I'm fascinated with the. Because I'm a former Catholic turned Satanist, I am fascinated with the machinations of the Vatican.
Ed Larson
And I can't believe as someone who hates Catholicism with every ounce of their body, I can't believe how much I liked Conclave.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, is I watch the con. I watch things that take place within the Catholic universe just because of. I know how jealous this makes Mormons. Like Mormons wish they had this level of importance and pomp and circumstance.
Ed Larson
Yeah. You can't be a Pope with a backpack.
Henry Zebrowski
They just. These Mormons are fucking slow. And so right now, if Catholics want to take the lead, I would say I was thinking about this with Lori Valo. So Larry Valo thinks she's a goddess, which I find interesting because she's got absolutely no butt. And if you look at every single.
Ed Larson
Coming from a non butt haver.
Henry Zebrowski
This is what I'm saying. I'm not a fertility God. But if you look at any version of any form of painting of a so called goddess throughout, pretty much all of humankind, they got that touch.
Ed Larson
Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
Which I find interesting. So if Catholicism wants to take the ring right now. Now. Push forward.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
If we could have a push forward papacy. I feel like maybe some. Because what brings everyone together? A big awesome butt.
Ed Larson
Hiney's bring everyone together.
Henry Zebrowski
Everybody likes time and I feel like it's good for everybody.
Ed Larson
Breasts do a good job too. But I feel like the hineys really bring it together. Like even like I'm a breast man.
Henry Zebrowski
Myself and I still think that for the Pope he needs to have a big ass.
Ed Larson
Yeah. And then people who like to look at men, they also love a male Heiney.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what I'm saying.
Ed Larson
So Heine's good for everybody.
Henry Zebrowski
Everybody.
Ed Larson
People like going. Some people go to baseball games just for the hines.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what I do.
Ed Larson
Yeah, absolutely.
Henry Zebrowski
People in the stands.
Ed Larson
Yeah. People in the stance.
Henry Zebrowski
That's not the only mysterious almost death. It's sad because God, I just. We'll get him.
Ed Larson
Get off your Pope box for one second.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Just. Oh God. I just love watching them die and they don't happen enough.
Ed Larson
It really is only going to be the fourth Pope we've seen die.
Henry Zebrowski
Paul, when did pope first Pope John first died?
Ed Larson
He died before Pope John. So this is gonna be our third Pope. Isn't that crazy?
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah.
Ed Larson
In our lifetime. This is only going to be our.
Henry Zebrowski
Third Pope and like our ninth President. Yeah, yeah. It's Pope. But the last one was. Yeah, I think it was Benedict. Was John Paul ii.
Ed Larson
John Paul ii. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's it. I mean Pope John Paul II. He was 1978 before we were born.
Henry Zebrowski
Man, I'd love to see the corpses of each one of these old men.
Ed Larson
It's not hard to see.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm just looking at a pantheon of old men faces.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Kill each one.
Ed Larson
They're all Popes. And Leo, let's get big button.
Henry Zebrowski
Let's get a big butt in the Vatican.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Now sadly, someone's big butt is never going to go to the Vatican. That is the beloved movie star now, unfortunately past Gene Hackman.
Ed Larson
Gene Hackman.
Henry Zebrowski
No one ever thought.
Ed Larson
I love Gene Hackman.
Henry Zebrowski
We all do. And I don't think any human being ever thought. Thought like if you were going to put money in this, this is why we need to tie in with one of our. They're not a, what is it? A gaming app, Right? Wink wink, what they're called now? Yes, yes. They're online gaming that you could put money towards and make money back from. Right Rob? Yes, yes, that's the legal way to say it. Right. Legally. Legally. Now. No. If we could have set up a pool on one of these gaming apps, we would have made so much money.
Ed Larson
Did we say Gene Hackman was gonna die?
Henry Zebrowski
No, but just not that. Gene Heckman's not only gonna die, but then you set all the parlays. Mysterious wife dies too.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Dog dies. One of three dogs died.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
That's like a hundred and sixty five, 000 to one payout.
Ed Larson
It is a really. No one. I've never seen anything like this.
Henry Zebrowski
We should set more of these up. We should do this where we should do a real death pool and set a super, super, super specific death and see if it pops up. Because this is craps.
Ed Larson
When you vote for Snake, when you try to go Snake Eyes.
Henry Zebrowski
You did this this year, but he wasn't on the list. No, of course not. Well, because with Gene Hackman we assume.
Ed Larson
He wasn't gonna die.
Henry Zebrowski
Well, I will. I assumed he was gonna pass, but I didn't think it would be with this much news attached to it.
Ed Larson
Well, I think it makes sense. He's been in so many mystery movies and thrillers and like, it's only fitting that he has a very mysterious death.
Henry Zebrowski
For those of you that don't know, I' everybody does. So Gene Hackman, when we, we grew up with Gene Hackman, he was legitimately an absolutely massive movie star.
Ed Larson
No one's. Yeah. No one was bigger. He was in almost every Movie. And he was always a badass.
Henry Zebrowski
Well, and it's funny because I think that as an as when you're watching him when you were younger, you didn't really kind of understand just how good he now. Now as an adult, looking back, I find it interesting that people talked about Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, all these other actors. But like Gene Hackman, the way he fucking holds that shit down.
Ed Larson
Got more Oscars than Pacino.
Henry Zebrowski
I just rewatched the French Connection. Holy shit. He's frightening in the French Connection. And just look at this killer's row. Superman. He was Lex Luthor. The only good Lex Luthor probably. I would say he was great. Oh, ants.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Everybody's favorite bug based movie made by a pedophile.
Ed Larson
You ever see Reds So good. A Bridge Too Far. Unbelievable.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah. Twilight's a good movie. They're all good. Extreme Measures is a good fucking movie movie.
Ed Larson
Mississippi Burning.
Henry Zebrowski
His performance in the bird cage is also absolutely fantastic.
Ed Larson
And get Shorty. But it's hilarious to get shorty.
Henry Zebrowski
And guess how he died? In the most mysterious way possible.
Ed Larson
We don't even know how he died.
Henry Zebrowski
Now this is truly. We kind of thought like normally the side stories curse hits and it sucks. But this was one of the first time we were like, you know, good. Like this allows some information to play out.
Ed Larson
But we've gotten a little bit.
Henry Zebrowski
But almost none.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
We now know that Gene Hackman was. He was found dead in his home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was very. He was connected to his whole community. He was found dead with him and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, 65 years old, 30 years younger, 95 years young. Gene Hackman. And there's also. There was two different side of the stories. There's one side of the story that said that the local restaurant that he used to go to all the time said that Gene Hack Pacman, that he was starting to his hail, his health was failing.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And his wife was taking even more and more total control of his. Of his like day to day.
Ed Larson
They were right. They were becoming recluses.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what they were saying. They were slowly pulling away.
Ed Larson
As you do when you're 95, but the wife's 65.
Henry Zebrowski
And they've specifically been very public for a very long time. They've been active members of that community for a long time. And his kids, Gene Hackman surviving kids. They also said we actually last time we talked to. To our father, he was in really good shape. We talked to him. But interestingly enough the kids had not talked to him for several months. Which they said also was majorly out of character.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
We now know that he was found dead. He was found, I believe, in his bathroom. They have the. We don't know exactly what it is. His mud room. And his wife was found. Right. So they were found. He was found, was believe in the home's mudroom. He had fallen suddenly. He was found wearing sweatpants, long sleeve T shirt and slippers.
Ed Larson
Mud room is a good name for the bathroom though. Cuz you're just making mud in there, baby.
Henry Zebrowski
Not me. Sometimes I'm making rabbit pellets if I'm on my diet. Now Arakawa was found in the bathroom near the front door of the house. The door to the bathroom was open. Arawa was on the ground wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt. An opened orange prescription bottle and scattered pills were seen on a countertop near Arakawa. All right. A space heater was also seen near our Arakawa's head. Now this is the first thing. Now we also know that.
Ed Larson
Was it on?
Henry Zebrowski
No. Now we also know that Gene Hackman was dead for at least nine days.
Ed Larson
At least. Now that's when the pacemaker stopped.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. Still no public information about the toxicology reports on the wife. Except for both. They was ruled that carbon monoxide was not what killed them.
Ed Larson
Which is what it looked like.
Henry Zebrowski
Very much so. It looked. That is what it looked like. Like. And then you wonder, was it made to look like that? Well, certain pathologists saying that they don't think the companion suicide was. They don't know if it was mutual suicide.
Ed Larson
They would be next to each other.
Henry Zebrowski
We don't know.
Ed Larson
Why would you. Why would they be separated?
Henry Zebrowski
Maybe one was more willing than the other. And then you. Maybe you've taken the pills and it's already too late.
Ed Larson
It seems like to me if I could armchair detective here.
Henry Zebrowski
You have to.
Ed Larson
It looks like Hackman died and she killed herself.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what they're saying. But we get it. We don't quite know why was the.
Ed Larson
Dog in the closet?
Henry Zebrowski
One of the weirdest factors of this whole thing. One of their three dogs was found dead in a closet of the bathroom where Arakawa's body was discovered.
Ed Larson
It was in a kennel. In the closet.
Henry Zebrowski
It was in a kennel in the closet. So we don't know what the hell it was. The other two dogs found alive, assuming.
Ed Larson
It starved to death.
Henry Zebrowski
Again, we're not quite certain. Has not been publicly released yet. Deputies found the door dog. What if you're fun, you know what I mean, if you got a free Wednesday, you know, like sometimes I'll just go do one. They asked me to go in there and I always go look for. I'm always around. I'm always getting in there. But they say it's. They found the door to Hackman in Arakara's home unsecured and open.
Ed Larson
Yeah. If it's open in a gated community. You're telling me there isn't security driving by these houses every goddamn day? At some point.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't know or if. If you're that closely paying attention. But it's also Gene Hackman. He was a known quantity in the. In the room. He really was. They have two cell phones were collected. They are getting access to it. And then I love the end of this. It says what movies was Gene Hackman? And she's like, well, you cbs? Yeah, we don't need to do your cbs. Okay. He's. He's Gene Hackman.
Ed Larson
Welcome to Moose Port, you piece of. That's all you get over it.
Henry Zebrowski
Have you heard of the conversation? This is a God. His house was beautiful. His house is really, really beautiful.
Ed Larson
Santa Fe. It's Gene Ackman. It deserves a beautif. He put in the full. I know what I always love Gene Hackman because he didn't get famous until his 40s.
Henry Zebrowski
No, he's. And he was a real actor. Marine. He used to beat the fuck out of people.
Ed Larson
Scary as hell.
Henry Zebrowski
Difficult man. Morgan Freeman said that he was the only actor he was ever physically afraid of.
Ed Larson
But they're also great friends.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. Because he used to. He's one of those where if you busted his balls, he liked you a lot.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, he liked men who stood their ground.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, he was one of those.
Ed Larson
Guys if you were tough, he got. But if you loved you, he loved you. And if he hated you, he fudgeing hated you.
Henry Zebrowski
But also old school, which I also like, fam. Old school. Hardcore Democrat.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Like was it like they talked about. I was reading all about his are stealing our money. I love that he did. When he played Popeye Doyle, the police officer in the French Connection, he had to say a bunch of racial slurs. And apparently he had to be talked into it very hardcore by William Fredkin. And he said that he used to per. William Fredkin's an too. But he's. He's also a great director and he used to torture Gene Hackman to get him angry. And if you watch that mov. That movie is wild, dude. That movie is the French connections.
Ed Larson
You know, they use real bullets in the ending.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes.
Ed Larson
And they're in the shootout in the end.
Henry Zebrowski
It's brutal. That is a. And Gene Hackman is just so good. It's just one of those where you forget what actors used to be like.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Like. And you watch them sometimes and you just like. Because nowadays I feel like a lot of times I'll watch some actors and you can kind of. I. I don't know if anybody feels like this where you watch a movie and you feel like you see the script.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Like I'm watching someone. I'm just seeing lines of dialogue on a page. And when I'm watching Gene Hackman, I forget that he's an actor.
Ed Larson
It's crazy because you think about Unforgiven. He's so terrifying and intimidating in that movie. And he's like in his mid to late 60s. That shit's crazy.
Henry Zebrowski
That's the movie. Morgan Freeman said that he was desperately afraid of him on. And then also he was exceptional as Lex Luther.
Ed Larson
Oh, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
As a comedic roll. These just was one of those old school guys that could do it all. And I guess he left us just like he always did in the films, wanting more. So now we'll find out. We are going to find out. Obviously this is going to be a story that rolls out over the next couple of weeks. Longer and longer. I. I personally believe that why they are holding back some information on the wife is because they know something that we don't know. And I think that that's. We. We will find out.
Ed Larson
It's an investigation. We're not. We. We shouldn't know anything yet.
Henry Zebrowski
We just don't. Yeah. We don't know very little.
Ed Larson
Yeah. No. As we should, man. But nuts. Also the pacemaker thing. I think armchair medical examiner here, he has to be.
Henry Zebrowski
Why.
Ed Larson
Why do we put WI fi in these things? So we know when they stop. Everything else is WI fi. You know, sprinklers have WI fi.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't know you know if you know.
Ed Larson
But the thing is like an Apple watch. If he was wearing an Apple Apple watch.
Henry Zebrowski
Do I really need to have another app? Do I need to have an app connected to my heart?
Ed Larson
It sounds like you're gonna need a pacemaker.
Henry Zebrowski
I already.
Ed Larson
Already do.
Henry Zebrowski
I do need one, though. They. I don't know. They can hook up to your Bluetooth.
Ed Larson
Oh, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
This is what I'm saying. I don't need. My dishwasher has an app.
Ed Larson
I know, but this seems more important than your dishwasher.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't want any more apps. I'm done.
Ed Larson
I'm out. I think. But I'm saying if you did get one more app for your pacemaker, you might want it.
Henry Zebrowski
No, actually, unfortunately, Marco sort of talked me into one. He was working on one. He said, have you tried this new app? It's been helping him emotionally regulate. And I was like, what is it? He's like, have you heard of this thing called Grindr? And I have just been. Just been so busy with these therapists I keep meeting.
Ed Larson
Yeah, you gotta talk to these guys.
Henry Zebrowski
Do these guys work with better help? Because some of these guys are rough around the edges.
Ed Larson
Yeah, I. I like. Grindr was great for me, but, you know, I like a female male therapist. And so they were. There were so few on there.
Henry Zebrowski
You ever go on Snapper?
Ed Larson
Oh, no. Yeah, yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
It's for lesbians.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Okay. Snapper is great. Snapper is one of my favorite. It's called.
Ed Larson
Oh, it's real.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. No, I actually did not know that that was real. No, I don't know. I did not know. No, Snapper is what I was making up because I was gonna say you could get. You. You can sign up for Cunt of the day.
Ed Larson
Oh, wow.
Henry Zebrowski
Really forward thinking on Snap. They're not a sponsor. Not a sponsor sponsor.
Ed Larson
But it's. If you want to get snapped, go ahead and get that app.
Henry Zebrowski
Absolutely. Snapper.
Ed Larson
Barely even nowhere perfect. Okay, so let's get to some. Oh, and shout out David Johansson. We love you.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, we miss you. Also, you know what I want to say about David Johansson's death. Nobody had the balls to call him Buster Poindexter. That's how I knew him.
Ed Larson
That's how you do it.
Henry Zebrowski
I didn't even know the New York Dolls existed until I met Marcus Parks. The only person I knew was Buster Poy Dexter. And that was my David Bowie.
Ed Larson
But he wasn't listed as that in Scrooge.
Henry Zebrowski
No, he never was.
Ed Larson
He should have been. Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
I thought he was Buster Point Dexter. And I don't know why people, why we've all decided to forget about Buster Point Dexter.
Ed Larson
Well, now that he's dead and he's in hell, you know what he's saying? Hot, hot, hot.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't think he's in hell.
Ed Larson
No, he's probably in dirt. There's nothing.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, there's dirt.
Ed Larson
There's nothing.
Henry Zebrowski
He's.
Ed Larson
Yeah, but. But you know, great guy businesses that are selling through the roof, like Untuck it, make selling, and for shoppers, buying simple with Shopify.

Henry Zebrowski
Right, Real quick, Chicago has this fucking. We just wanted to quickly touch upon what I think might be one. I look this up. One of the youngest serial killer killers ever. Yeah, this is a. They are now applying six homicides to this young man.
Ed Larson
Antonio Reyes.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes, Antonio Reyes. Now this was in Chicago.
Ed Larson
He's been in jail for five years now and he tried to kill a cellmate when he was in jail.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, this guy is. I'm gonna say irate. Yeah. And it is. This is. He came out there. They think there's a. Five new charges are just been brought against him. He was already in custody and they have. They are describing the mur as serial murderers. Not that Angelo. Not that Reyes. You just pulled that up. No, not the soccer player. Not the famous soccer player. And yeah, he did try to kill us.
Ed Larson
It was.
Henry Zebrowski
Tried to kill his roommate. I'm gonna call him mate.
Ed Larson
All right, fine. You're just for fun.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, yeah, yeah, his roommate.
Ed Larson
Yeah, his roommate. Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
With roommates like these who need cellmates.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah. Shanks for the memories. Yeah, but he has. So he's killed five other people. He killed six people total. But the thing is that's driving me crazy about this is these all seem like passion. Not passion, but like in the heat of the moment kills.
Henry Zebrowski
I am going to say that now that I'm really diving into this. He's a spree killer more than anything else than a serial killer.
Ed Larson
This takes from March 2nd of 2020 to November 9th of 2020.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes, he shot people. He shot one group of people while trying to kill someone. Specifically, he was trying to kill a 16 year old boy and then killed kids that were in the car with him.
Ed Larson
No, he didn't kill the kids. The kids he's getting caught for. He killed the 31 year old father and then the. The kids that were in the car were. He's getting attempted murder for those.
Henry Zebrowski
Okay, he just got him.
Ed Larson
Yeah, he's tagged them. Yeah, they're not. They all live.
Henry Zebrowski
But he's still like. A lot of this seems to I am going to say now that I'm looking this. A lot of this might be gang activity and some kind of other type of personal.
Ed Larson
But he didn't rob these people.
Henry Zebrowski
I don't think it could be past that. You know what I mean? A lot of times it's not about direct attack random.
Ed Larson
That's why it took so long to.
Henry Zebrowski
Find the See that'll be very, very interesting. And that is. That's not good.
Ed Larson
And then you call it first degree murder. I feel like that's like a problem because I don't know if they are necessarily first degree murders.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. I mean unless it is. If they are if he I believe if he walks out and purposely goes to shoot people in general that's enough.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
To be considered first degree. If he is that normally it's. If you did not basically if you did not leave the house that day thinking you were going to kill somebody. It can be anything. But first degree like if it happens on accident if it happens during a fight.
Ed Larson
I think he just had a gun on him and got. And he got an argument when on.
Henry Zebrowski
Road rage or some it sounds like though if they're saying it's first degree they. They think that maybe. Wow. Yeah. One victim was killed when he went to the gas station to buy a pop. Another victim was sitting in a parked car with a friend on Palm Sunday afternoon. Another victim's only crime was taking his family to buy a new puppy.
Ed Larson
That's a guy who was killed in front of his kids. They were on their way to buy a new new puppy.
Henry Zebrowski
Did they get the puppy? I hope they better at honestly I'd say you.
Ed Larson
I'm sure there's a puppy.
Henry Zebrowski
You're gonna have to get three puppies.
Ed Larson
Thing they have you're gonna have. I mean now it's a dog and it's probably neglected.
Henry Zebrowski
Yep. That's very sad. Very very sad. But this is like it sounds like he did just kind of randomly decide to shoot people which and it's the.
Ed Larson
South side of Chicago and unfortunately there's a ton of murders there especially in 2020.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yes.
Ed Larson
And this is what this dirt during COVID that he's doing all this and like the beginning of COVID and so it's harder for people to get caught and it takes this long to find. I wonder if we're going to find more people like this pre killers during COVID that we weren't able to catch because everyone's busy with riots in the street and like that. And just like the hot People died in the hospitals.
Henry Zebrowski
It has been five years, though. So I actually don't know at this point how much. I just think that this is just crazy because it really is so deeply disconnected. Connected.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And so that is so hard. It just. Yeah. And you're right. It is extremely hard to prosecute these crimes. Yeah, it's very, very hard.
Ed Larson
But they got the guy, the gun lined up with bullets from multiple victims, and it is his gun. So it seems like we can go ahead. I mean, he's going to stand trial, of course, and every alleged. But yeah, no, it's. It is. This fella here is in a heap of trouble for killing a bunch of people.
Henry Zebrowski
And he. And he. As he should.
Ed Larson
I think he's more of a ser. Because I think a lot of times sometimes when the younger people in, you know, like, south side of Chicago and places like that, it's usually gang activity. And this doesn't seem like it is either.
Henry Zebrowski
Or it's somebody that is taking advantage of the rampant gang activity in order to go and get some sick intention off of himself shooting at people and then imagining it could all be swept under the rug as gang activity.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Which seems like what happened here.
Henry Zebrowski
Yep.
Ed Larson
But, yeah, nuts.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, it is great. This is cr. It's a crazy story. It will be developed, developing. And then we have another story that is also developing here in Los Angeles. There is a gnome.
Ed Larson
Oh, yes. Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
Now, I'm not going to say in what area of town this is, but it is in the San Fernando Valley.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Was the. The gnome was caught?
Henry Zebrowski
I believe it. It did appear upon my next door. One of my favorite apps in the world.
Ed Larson
I'm a citizen. Citizen. Boy.
Henry Zebrowski
Citizen is getting less reliable. Yeah.
Ed Larson
Lies on citizen.
Henry Zebrowski
And what's nice about next door is that you really, really get to find out who thinks that every black person is a criminal. Because does that. Oh, yes, it does. It does. Next door is a special place filled with the hermits of various neighborhoods of Los Angeles, and God, I love them. And this man went on a posting spree saying that he believed he had evidence of a gnome harassing him outside of his home.
Ed Larson
Yeah, it is.
Henry Zebrowski
And as you can see right here, clear as day, this person posted what could only be a picture of a gnome in a ring camera because nobody would wear such a tall, pointy hat.
Ed Larson
And have a weird little butt like this.
Henry Zebrowski
Unlike. Unless it's me. But my. My hat was in the shop.
Ed Larson
It is a onesie.
Henry Zebrowski
And I could not. I was in there when this picture was taken. Because it actually has the time stamps on it.
Ed Larson
It is definitely a little person.
Henry Zebrowski
It is a gnome, Eddie. Yeah, it is absolutely and utterly a gnome. And I don't think that you understand how important this is. And it seems that the gnome has been caught.
Ed Larson
Yeah, the gnome is caught.
Henry Zebrowski
So the same person.
Ed Larson
What did the gnome do? Why are we catching it?
Henry Zebrowski
Why? It was dinging and dashing.
Ed Larson
Digging and dashing.
Henry Zebrowski
Dinging and dashing.
Ed Larson
Oh, dinging and dashing.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. One of the worst crimes you can do in any suburb of San Fernando Valley.
Ed Larson
Hitting a doorbell and leaving.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes, that should be allowed. One of the scariest crimes a gnome can do. But now it seems that he has escalated. According to this article, posted by the same poster not two days later. As you can see. My God, finally it's been caught. On the 22nd 7th, a naked man assaulted a 63 year old woman outside her home.
Ed Larson
Do we know it's the same. How do we know it's the same gnome?
Henry Zebrowski
It's posted by the same man, Eddie.
Ed Larson
But yeah, but there's no way to know that this is the gnome.
Henry Zebrowski
This man declares that it must be the gnome.
Ed Larson
The man who attacked the woman though, was not dressed like a gnome.
Henry Zebrowski
No, naked. He was naked as the new dawn.
Ed Larson
I, I think he was a lot of crime next to their house.
Henry Zebrowski
No, no, I think that this guy, he does like to post videos of the helicop. I have been following this man. I don't want to even name him because then you'll find out where he lives. I've been following him. I actually specifically follow his account because of his, because of his posting. This is also the man that posted the mysterious picture of the apple that said that people were harassing him in our neighborhood. Oh, and this man is scared.
Ed Larson
He's calling it on himself. At this point, I, at this point I want to harass him.
Henry Zebrowski
I think, think that. I do too, Eddie. I do too. But yes, he is connecting these two crimes.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
And I don't know if it is indeed real, but he does firmly believe in the gnome.
Ed Larson
How do we get Terry the Gnome to give this guy a call?
Henry Zebrowski
I think that Terry the Gnome, he. You'd know if it was Terry the Gnome because he'd be naked. He would have been the naked one. A mailbox. Just like Terry the Gnome is supposed to be stealing lemons. Even though you got a sign that says leave my lemons alone.
Ed Larson
It's a scurvy.
Henry Zebrowski
That's what. Yeah, he's just like. I like almost. I like Edging my scurvy. Love, Terry.
Ed Larson
Oh, man. Does Terry ever have a. You know, get with old ladies or.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, the best. The hardest part about a. Let's say a mature full size human is headlined. Lot of times, you know me, I'm Terry. I give my all.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
If I'm. I'm from the tip of my gnome feet to the very top of my gnome hat, right? I throw it all in. I am like a bucking, liquid metal cobra up against any woman's pubic muscle, right? I go right up against that bone.
Ed Larson
Does it matter how big they are?
Henry Zebrowski
No, no. But find that if they're a little bit more mature, I slide all the way in.
Ed Larson
Yeah. And then what?
Henry Zebrowski
I got to dig my way out. Like that guy and the whale. Yeah, yeah. The guy in that video you guys show. You got to find the light, you know, I mean, like a plant. So that's why normally I stick. That's why I stick to Shih Tzus.
Ed Larson
Yeah. That's because the anal sex. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the. Do you know this guy? Is he part of the gnome community?
Henry Zebrowski
He's a part of the gnome illegal alien I'm going to call gnome I on him. That's what he needs. No, this is not. This is. According to the man that posted this. Yeah, this is not my picture, but was an image sent to me by one of my neighbors on this app who lives in the community. It was captured on their wing camera. If you have any information on who this is, please contact me. I am building up a case to take to the lapd. He is talking about being dinged and dashed by a gnome and that he's building this case against this gnome.
Ed Larson
And it is just like a picture of maybe a child running through the street with a gnome hat and a bodysuit.
Henry Zebrowski
It could be. It could be Eddie. It really could be. Or. Or this is the loneliest man in the world.
Ed Larson
Oh, my God.
Henry Zebrowski
And he. He is desperate for our outreach.
Ed Larson
Yeah, well, we should definitely reach out and at least, you know, come over and ring the doorbell.
Henry Zebrowski
I want to go. God, I want to just go. We got to get a hat. I'll find his address. Yeah, we got to find out exactly where he is.
Ed Larson
You can find this guy. That's the whole point of next door, is you can find the people that post these ridiculous things.
Henry Zebrowski
You should be putting your straight up. Just. Also, this is a good little lesson for everybody.
Ed Larson
People keep commenting on. I'm wondering what to.
Henry Zebrowski
Lapd. You're all like, yeah, everybody. All the People are commenting as if it's real. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There a lot of comments. Lot of comments.
Ed Larson
He takes the time to respond to all of them.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, very much so. I love it, Chris. Stuff you says. Looks like he thinks he's a Teletubby from the back. Be very careful. This is the original poster. Chris, is this a joke? Look at my other posts. It's a man in a gnome costume. God, I love next door.
Ed Larson
You're so upset.
Henry Zebrowski
I love it. God.
Ed Larson
Do you feel safe in your neighborhood?
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, I'm the most dangerous person. I saw the same thing in Fresno four years ago according to Tony Starks. Hi, Tony. This is a. Interesting.
Ed Larson
Please explain. Is this.
Henry Zebrowski
That was his response, lol.
Ed Larson
No, this is not a joke. Please see my other posts.
Henry Zebrowski
This is a real issue in our community. I just ran the video. God, I love this guy. Maybe he's out there. So just check on your local gnomes, see if they're okay.
Ed Larson
Oh, okay.
Henry Zebrowski
Let's move on. Now we have very. Do we have anything else we want to cover before I get to some letters?
Ed Larson
Well, there is the. The. The guy who blew up the. The people's house that he went to the wedding.
Henry Zebrowski
It's just kind of funny because it really is just that story. It's like. Because I was looking into it, there's no connection between that. Like he went. A couple got married.
Ed Larson
I think you can assume he was in love with the bride.
Henry Zebrowski
It seemed like that guy left in the middle of the ceremony.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
With jugs and jugs of gasoline. Filled the house of the mar. With house. And then blew up the house with himself inside of it.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Yeah. I think he died on accident, though. I don't think it was a suicide.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah, I feel like it was. It was maybe his first time blowing something up.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Yeah, it was his first. Yeah. And so it didn't work out, but yeah. Ton Davis and Eleni Vetos were getting married when their residence exploded, killing Anthony Aela Puebla inside as well. Yes, the wedding guest who disappeared halfway through the festivities and snuck out to the happy couple's Illinois home and blew.
Henry Zebrowski
It up.
Ed Larson
Right in the middle of the wedding.
Henry Zebrowski
Hey, man. I mean, that's how you know they're out of the house.
Ed Larson
Yeah. No, yeah, he was. This is not a murder. This is definitely just very upset with the people getting married even though he was invited.
Henry Zebrowski
See, that's the thing, is that he was in. So things were good enough to invite him or they felt weird about maybe they thought he was so out of pocket. We got to invite him.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah. No, but yeah. Know he blew up these people's house. I'm feel bad. Also in Chicago. Busy week for Chicago, but yeah. A GoFundMe is set up for the couple who lost their house and six cats.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, that's sad. The cat's making.
Ed Larson
The cat is. The cats are sad. He blew up all the cats.
Henry Zebrowski
There's no reason for that. You know, there's just so many, many other ways to get revenge. Oh, wow.
Ed Larson
The GoFundMe already raised $62,000.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, it's a really good way to get revenge, fellas. If you got problems like that, you got to seduce one of the bridesmaids.
Ed Larson
You think so? Oh, yeah. I said go for the groom's mom.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh, if you. Yeah, the groom's mother.
Ed Larson
Because she's definitely. Especially if she's, you know, a widow or something.
Henry Zebrowski
Has anybody ever had that side story? So potl.gmail.com. has anybody had their mom. Mom. Get by somebody at a wedding, at their own wedding? Yeah.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Let us know. I feel like that's a good story to pass around.
Henry Zebrowski
Nothing would make me happier.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
I've never heard anything like that. I mean, I would. I mean, I've seen documentaries. I've seen videos.
Ed Larson
Yeah, yeah. And not at the wedding. At the hotel room later on after.
Henry Zebrowski
The wedding or at the wedding.
Ed Larson
I don't think, you know, if it happens at the wedding, maybe you keep that a secret.
Henry Zebrowski
Honestly, how crazy fun would that be?
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Think about this. Like, I know that your beloved, like.
Ed Larson
The mashed potato bar.
Henry Zebrowski
Can I ask, laid out, honestly, how would you feel if your good friend Mr. Pastrami.
Ed Larson
Uhhuh.
Henry Zebrowski
If he went like, you love Mr. Pastrami?
Ed Larson
Well, I think we need to pick someone else because we. We've been friends with my family since.
Henry Zebrowski
6 years old, but that's how he set. That's how he set the. Okay, so it's a little too close.
Ed Larson
We need someone like. Like Travis.
Henry Zebrowski
Travis Irvine.
Ed Larson
Travis Irvine, I feel like, is a good. Is a good one.
Henry Zebrowski
And he's probably most likely, I think, of anybody on the staff or anybody I've ever known. He's the one most likely to have sex with an older elderly woman at a wedding. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He a member of a family.
Ed Larson
He. He's not a prostitute. Sex for, like, I don't know, Donuts. Donuts. Yeah. Dinner.
Henry Zebrowski
He's a professional producer and an editor, so he does very well.
Ed Larson
Yeah. He doesn't need your money.
Henry Zebrowski
No, no. But he wants your sex. Sex. But Travis Irvine, I think like, how would you feel like if your mom was still alive and you love your mother and your mom got tipsy at the wedding.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And Travis hooked up with her.
Ed Larson
I mean, as long as he's nice.
Henry Zebrowski
To her, you'd be fine with it.
Ed Larson
I think so actually. Oddly enough. I mean, as long as like he's not leading her on and she doesn't fall in love and he breaks her heart. That would piss me off.
Henry Zebrowski
Why does that make me. I feel like it's weird if like the idea that if they attempted to date. That's so much wor. Worse than just banging it out.
Ed Larson
I said, oh, if. As long as mom's on the board for banging it out, I think that's fine. But you know, you can't like bang her out and then she get too attached.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah. Because then you're seeing them at Thanksgiving, Christmas.
Ed Larson
That would happen to my mom and. But I'm down to see him at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But then that's a whole nother thing. You have to be a good person and a good father to me.
Henry Zebrowski
That's the thing is that. That was like. Like saying it about Marcus's mom in a way. You know, like about how she's so friendly and she's so sweet and it's like. It just gets to a point where it's like, you know, like it would be kind of fun to be like Marcus's dad. You know, it be kind of fun to get in there and just show up mean like as your father. I feel like, like. And I just like to just see the reaction.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
You know, just cuz it's fun to do, you know, But I think that.
Ed Larson
Somebody has a single mom.
Henry Zebrowski
My mom.
Ed Larson
Rob.
Henry Zebrowski
Both. My mom's almost single. Say Henry. Almost single. But no, no, my dad's still alive.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Technically she refuses to flirt. She has many options.
Ed Larson
I mean. But this is a good idea though. Travis is obviously we've is the.
Henry Zebrowski
I love Travis. And we. We do pay Travis. But someone. They need more money. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ed Larson
Someone a little more well off.
Henry Zebrowski
I need Kum.
Ed Larson
Nan.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh yeah. Kum. We love Emily.
Ed Larson

Ed Larson
So attractive.
Henry Zebrowski
I. And I mean this right now. Someone needs to send this to him. Send this to him. If. If you don't have sex with my mom.
Ed Larson
Please kum.
Henry Zebrowski
And. And join my family.
Ed Larson
You have year. You have I'd say at least a couple years.

Yeah. Until we're ready for you.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm gonna. I'm gonna dox you.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
So I need you to. I need you to be with my mother.
Ed Larson
I think that you. If you don't sleep with Henry's mother, we are going to release your personal information.
Henry Zebrowski
Unfortunately. Unfortunately. And I don't want it to be like this. You're forcing me to do this, Kamal. Your lack of responsibility.
Ed Larson
You should not have gotten so in shape.
Henry Zebrowski
You are forcing me. You are forcing my. My hand.
Ed Larson
Yes. And Henry's mother Eternal. That was a movie he was in.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh sure.
Ed Larson
The Eternals.
Henry Zebrowski
It was one.
Ed Larson
It was.
Henry Zebrowski
I got through about. I got through about a solid 15 minutes of it and I was happy to. That he is doing well.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm extremely happy that. It sucks, Rob. Yeah, it sucks. But. But he's angry his mom.
Ed Larson
I will finish watching the movie.
Henry Zebrowski
I promise.
Ed Larson
He promises to finish.
Henry Zebrowski
I promise you I will ca you my friends finish.
Ed Larson
He finishes.
Henry Zebrowski
I. And guess what? I'll even do you one better. I'll throw a letterbox review for Stuber on there as well. If you could do that please. Cuz my mom won't know what hit her. Thank you everybody. Thank you for guys for helping with. Helping you with this. Look at his arms. No, he's doing great. God, he's fair you very well. I technically should just text him. We should get him in here. I'd love to. Of course he's doing the rounds.
Ed Larson
Probably not anymore.
Henry Zebrowski
Oh whatever. Oh whatever he could like. He should be so lucky to my mother.
Ed Larson
All right.
Henry Zebrowski
She's good at making food cut some of this. You do. You're too good looking.
Ed Larson
All right. All right. We'll make a clip and tag him and see what he says know. Let's see what it does. No, let's go back.
Henry Zebrowski
Let's get some letters. Sadly, right before I saw this I saw a headline that says 10 year old boy crushed to death by 340 pounds. Foster mom. After she sat at him for just misbehaving. But we're just going to move on.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
Now let's go to that happens every day. It does. I mean Wendy just knows to get out of the way.
Ed Larson
She really does. What's wrong?
Henry Zebrowski
It's just laughing about. No A lot of things. A lot of things.
Ed Larson
All right, Wendy, not getting crushed by.
Henry Zebrowski
You, but how is. I blame the boy, you know what I mean? That's what I just did.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
No. Now I got a couple of great listener emails about Mormonism. I was saying before I was going to save it. I wasn't going to save it, but I might actually save it just because I did find out within the confines of marriage, blowjobs are okay. They're just not that technically prevalent.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
But they do they say a you can do whatever you want you want within a Mormon marriage.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
You also can't like you do can. You can legally get divorced but your spirit's forever bound so you just get to see your doesn't even matter. No. When you die worse. Oh yeah, of course it's all much worse. You die, your. Your soul is already bonded to your husband and then you end up on the planet that he inherits and becomes God of. And so that's why every single time I've received. I've received so many emails as we're covering Chad Dayl and Lori Valow about like you're painting Mormonism in broad strokes and blah blah, blah. But I'm going to have you know, even you normal Mormons are weird.
Ed Larson
That's the thing, these Mormons, man, if they were Catholic, they could be like the Pope and have their lungs filled with guys.
Henry Zebrowski
All right, Catholicism's got all the fucking shit too, dude. They got all the fucking same garbage that you guys have and it's a thousand years older. And people don't think you're a weird pervert when you tell them you got. Then you're in it, all right? Unless you're in charge of. Seems like there's different. Everybody's like a different type of Mormon. There's many stripes of Mormon and they're different. Each ward wards are different, households are different. Everybody plays fast and loose kind of with the rules. But technically, if you call yourself a capital M Mormon, no matter what you personally believe, you're on the same bus as the rest of them. Just remember that. So it's. You can't as much as you want to be like we're better than the others. No, you ain't.
Ed Larson
No, no. I mean all religion is silly.
Henry Zebrowski
They're all wrong.
Ed Larson
They're all even atheists.
Henry Zebrowski
I can't stand hate everything as an atheist.
Ed Larson
I don't like atheists.
Henry Zebrowski
Yes. Hate all.
Ed Larson
They're so annoying.
Henry Zebrowski
Everybody can go fuck themselves.
Ed Larson
Yep.
Henry Zebrowski
I'm just in a mood today. Yeah.
Ed Larson
You are.
Henry Zebrowski
All right, let's get these, let's get some. This actually I like.
Ed Larson
What?
Henry Zebrowski
I'm actually accidentally right. Of course, yeah.
Ed Larson
Why did you say how are you.
Henry Zebrowski
Accidentally right about twisting the radio dials? I've been an ICU nurse for in Florida for almost a decade, so I've seen some shit. But Henry discussing how to revive a woman by twisting the nips is actually not totally out there. Whoa. Some patients like to fake seizures to receive medication for funsies. This can terrify new nurses witnessing these seizures as the patients usually go full fledged movie dramatic with them.
Ed Larson
How long can you fake a seizure for? It's got to be tiring.
Henry Zebrowski
How long do you. How long you willing to go to get your Ativan?
Ed Larson
You know what I mean?
Henry Zebrowski
Like you just feto Barbital, baby. They just flop around, man. They want it right now. After some years of experience with this, you start to learn tricks to be sure they're having a genuine seizure. Most commonly we lift their arm over their face and let go. If you're with it, you won't let your arm smack yourself in the face. We can tickle your eyelashes, rashes, and see if you grimace or pull back.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
Really, anything that takes effort that you can't control during a real seizure.
Ed Larson
So they poke them in the eye to see if they react. Come on.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. Can you imagine doing that to a guy where they were like, oh, I guess he is really having a seizure.
Ed Larson
I guess they won't remember.
Henry Zebrowski
No. I've witnessed on more than one occasion some old school nurses who are clearly tired of the due. The good old radio dial twist though there's nothing quite like watching someone faking a seizure absolutely lose their mind after an old woman just straight up yanked yanks the hell out of their nipple. While it's not exactly moral or ethically the right option, I will say it works. And I'll say when it comes to emergency medicine, a W is a W. All right. That's what it says. According to again, this is Google AI.
Ed Larson
So we don't know if this is real.
Henry Zebrowski
It says a nurse is not allowed to twist her nipples under any circumstances. Hey, my health insurance is going to do whatever the it is, I want it.
Ed Larson
Yeah. No.
Henry Zebrowski
All right. And so, yeah, if I'm coming out of here with $150, $150,000 bill, you better play with my goddamn nipples. And you better make me come too.
Ed Larson
You don't have to make them come. It takes too long.
Henry Zebrowski
At least they don't feel like I'm in church.
Ed Larson
Amen. I got a letter this week in this old dogs.
Henry Zebrowski
A, B, C, D. I said a.
Ed Larson
Letter E. I know Ed struggle. It's all too real. We're biased as a family and have a wonderful dog come into our lives that just won' just will not die.
Henry Zebrowski
It's like the Pope.
Ed Larson
We were friends with a family who had four border collies and sadly had to move across the country and decided to drive. It was fine for three of the youngest dogs, but at the stage of sky, who was 16 at the time, coming to the end of their life, the family was unsure what to do. We offered to take in sky as part of our family because, hell, she can't have that much left of a mortal coil, could she? Well, she was brought over. The family gave us a bag of dog food and said, donate the rest. When sky passed, five years later, she's still with us. Don't get me wrong.
Henry Zebrowski
That dog could buy a beer.
Ed Larson
Yeah. Sky is the best dog a guy would want. She's loyal, beautiful, and kind. There is a point. We had to poke her every other day to make sure she's still with us. She was a soul in a waking, undead corpse. Miss her every day, but don't miss the zombie breath.
Henry Zebrowski
A. That's my favorite.
Ed Larson
I love that. Hail, Sky. That's beautiful. I love old dogs. I don't think I ever want to have a puppy. I think I don't want to ever have a puppy.
Henry Zebrowski
Natalie and I have talked about this and what we want to do, honestly switch back and forth.
Ed Larson
Okay.
Henry Zebrowski
The next dog we get is going to be a puppy.
Ed Larson
Yeah.
Henry Zebrowski
And the one after that will be an older rescue.
Ed Larson
I like to rent a puppy.
Henry Zebrowski
Why? Just so you could play with it.
Ed Larson
For a little bit and then give it back.
Henry Zebrowski
It's foster. Yeah, you could foster.
Ed Larson
It's a great idea.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah. Just don't pay.
Ed Larson
If anybody sounds like I'm doing something good.
Henry Zebrowski
If anybody lets you rent a dog, don't do that.
Ed Larson
I would rather pay them for the dog and rent it than me. Have to, like, really care about it.
Henry Zebrowski
So you wanted to treat it like a prostitute, like it's a sex worker. So that's the idea. So it's a transactional.
Ed Larson
Yes.
Henry Zebrowski
Relationship between you and the puppy. Because you remember every day, love. You don't pay the puppy to show up. You pay the puppy to leave.
Ed Larson
Right.
Henry Zebrowski
You're gonna live your life. No one. Yeah. I could get puppies if I wanted to, but if I pay them honestly, it's Just a little bit easier for me. And. Me and my puptitute, we laugh ourselves to sleep each night because I know in the morning she'll be gone.
Ed Larson
Yeah, that's right.
Henry Zebrowski
Yep.
Ed Larson
And just you'll be sitting there getting watched by the ghost of Norbert.
Henry Zebrowski
Man, Norbert's a ghost dude. And they just keep bringing up his corpse.
Ed Larson
Well, of course. He's a star.
Henry Zebrowski
He's dead.
Ed Larson
We talked about Gene Hackman today. He's dead.
Henry Zebrowski
Yeah.
Ed Larson
I'm gonna go. You watched. You watched his movie?
Henry Zebrowski
I did. Norbert doesn't have a movie.
Ed Larson
If you put all of the Instagram reels together, I bet it's an hour and a half.
